Best Practice for Outdoor Connection to AC Mains
In all circumstances and with any outdoor infrastructure the recommended practice is to connect to AC
mains in an order grade weather protected junction box. This needs to be implemented by a qualified
resource in a manner that is consistent with the electrical code in force in the jurisdiction of deployment. In
many countries this will require a licensed electrician to perform this operation.
In Japan, this would is a Certified Electrician by Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
The use of plugs with infrastructure equipment is suitable only for temporary installs where nuisance
tripping of GFI plugs is considered tolerable. Should it be desired to attach a plug to the cable assemblies
then the installer is expected to follow all directions provided with the plug end in a fashion consistent with
local electrical code.
